I don't like this solution, but if no one tells that he's not agree... 
I will say my last comment then, as a user i probably don't know kipi/kipi-plugins 
are plugins of my preferred image viewer (let's say gwenview), so i cannot understand
what you're going to decide. What i see is i won't have my features any more... 
that's bad IMO (even if digikam-devel could solve the problem for developers). 
As a packager it means who care about digikam package will have to manage some 
confilicts.
As a developer, which I'm in life not in this project, it is very sad to see
how a great idea and job is failing....

Maybe a day we could meet again in digkam mailing list then... maybe not
